Is Allegorical Religion better than Fundamentalism?

Faith isn't a requirement of religiosity. The Most Faithful™ people need no faith, because they know (and/or are contended to have met) god in person, for example. Conversely, a religion of no gods may need no faith because it's premised on fact or a commitment to facts, instead.

I don’t see what you are describing as a religion.
